“Chertoff: We can’t really enforce laws on illegals “

I almost wish Donald Trump was President.
So I could see/hear him on live, national TV tell Chertoff
“You’re fired”.

I suspect that Chertoff is right that we cannot completely enforce the law against illegals. There are simply too many to catch. That doesn’t mean you don’t try, however.

I recall the story of the man on the beach, walking along and throwing starfish back into the ocean, saving them. Another man came from the opposite direction and pointed out the thousands of starfish on the beach and said, “You’ll never make a difference. There are too many starfish.” The first man replied, “I can make a difference for this one, and this one, and this one.” Same goes for illegal immigration laws. We cannot catch them all, but those we can catch and return, we should.
